|
|
Strong currents or long line penetrations
The LBV300-6 builds on the standard LBV systems, but with the added forward thrust and long line pulling capability. Ideally suited to more demanding current flow or extra long penetrations. All still in a portable MiniROV system.
|
|
|
Extreme forward thrust and pulling power
The LBV300-6 has tremendous forward thrust with the addition of two forward thrusters outboard giving the LBV300-6 a higher level of capability in stronger currents and with longer tether.
|
|
|
Industry leading small diameter, low drag tether
SeaBotix is renowned for its impressive small diameter, low drag umbilical. At 8mm (0.3") in diameter the operator controls the ROV, not the tether. The durable tether comes in a variety of lengths up to 2,000 meters (6,000ft) |
|
|
Highly intuitive integrated control console
The SeaBotix operator control unit (OCU) is widely regarded as the most intuitive. All controls at the operators finger tips in an ergonomic and rugged controller. |
|
|
High-Quality Video and lighting
The LBV300-6 systems are supplied with the latest Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) color camera technology. Coupled to the color camera is a high intensity LED array providing bright white light throughout the 270º range of view. |
|
|
Stable balanced MiniROV sensor platform
Unique to the LBV vehicles is the balanced nature of the ROV in water. Careful attention to design and layout provide a small yet stable platform for high quality sensor data acquisition.
